LINCOLN, Nov. 3.—(Special.)—8hould a person secure a bill of lading for a jug of whisky which the owner refused o take out of the station, then pay all the dosts | and take the liquor and divide It between three other parties, each contributing a fourth of the expense money, that person is gullty of viclating the liquor law, and the transaction Is considered a sale of Nquor without a lcense. Thus has the supreme court decided in the case of Fred Skiles of Holdrege, who did that very thing. He was convicted | in the lower court and the supreme court | yesterday affirmed the judgment of the lower court. New Trial for Henderso: Willlam Henderson, convicted in Grant county for criminal assault, will bs given ther trial. The supreme court reversed the fhdgment of the district court, holding the evidence did not justify the action of the lower court. The complaining wit- ness was Bmma C.. Biles. th Omahans Win. John L. Cahn and others who remon- strated against the levying of special as- sessments upon their real estate i South Omaha for the purpose of defraying three- fifths of the expense incurred in repaving a part of Twenty-fourth street have won thels sult. *The tax was assessed in 1906, The remonstrance was not formally over- ruled by the eity counell, but was ignored The district court found that the owners of 60 per vent of the feot frontage in the paying district had remonstrated aganst the repavement of the street and that the city counell was withqut jurisdiction to levy the assessments in sult. This judg- ment Is affirmed by the supreme court. Luwsuit Over Horse. In the case of H, Kred Miller against the Burlington Rallway company, ap- pealod by the rallway company from Cu: ter county, the supreme court affirms the Judgment of the district court in tavor of | Miller for $1,315.60 damages for the lo of & stalllon shipped oyer the company's Unes from Cambria, Id., to Broken Bow, Neb. When the horse was shipped the value of the animal was fixed at $100, ssessed. \When the animal died in tran- sit as a result of fire ithe owner sued to recover $2,000 damages. The raliroad com- pany claimed that the damages could not exceed the value upon which freight was pald. The supreme court holds that such a limitation is prohibited by the statute of the state in which the shipment origl- nated and the constitution of the state in which delivery was to be made and 18 therefore void.

CHANCE TO CEMENT FACTIONS Leaven of Harmony Working Among Republicans in South Dakota. MITCHELL, 8. D., Nov. It is evident, accor¢ing to reports from | varfous parts of the state, that the leaven | of harmony between the factions of the | republican party is working to the possible | cementing of the opposites. J. H. Scriven, | the alloting agent for the government on the Rosebud agency, has been traveling through the eastern and central parts of the state for the luet month on business | connected with his position and he has | embraced the opportunity talk with politiclans in both factions to get at the real situation as close as possible. He has traveled the territory frdm Mitchell to the Black Hills and from Aberdeen to the south state line. “In whatever part of the state I have been,” said Mr. Scriven, “politios in elther side of the party I8 not very much di cussed, and I do not remember of talking the situation over with any one man, but what I had to start the political side of the | conversation. 1 have never seen as con- tented and happy pecple as our South | Dakotans are now.

ASTOR YACHT STILL MISSING| Anxiety of Friends for Safety of Mil. Crulsing In West Indies Increasing. — NEW YORK, Nov. Every added hour of uncertainty deepens the anxiety felt for Colonel John Jacob Astor, his_son, Vin- cent, and Richard Peters, a cousin of Mrs, Astor, all of whom have now been out of tough with the world for a fortnight, when the missing yacht Nourmahal was last spoken. i \ Shipping masters point out that if the Nourmahal was blown out of Its course by the late West Indlan hurricane it /might have great difficulty In making port again, as its crulsing radius, like that of all yachts, I8 comparatively small and would soon be exhausted In fighting head winds. William A, Dobbyn, Colonel Astor's secre- tary In this city, was stlll without word Though in- clined at first to look at the situation with little concern, Mr. Dobbyn Is now alarmed as are other friends of Colonel Astor.

He was sent to' Alaska by the government to Investigate work done towgrd developing the claims. Mr. Kennedy spent two months golng over the thirty-three clalms to ascertain the amount of work done on them.
